    Get some winamp plugins here......encoding and decoding(playing)

    You can also try Sonys ATRAC3 formate used for MD Long Play.. sounds pritty good... but im sure it is copyrighted to your pc meaning it wont work if your transfer it to another PC.

    Why not mp3? Isn't it the obvious choice?

    Apart from it, there's Ogg Vorbis and... eh... AIFF?

    Good quality and not mp3, wma, ogg or anything useful = wav

    Make it small? Zip it. Wavs compress nicely, like bitmaps
